Hm. Possible. Even still, how does the familiar (I like calling it Coyote) know what Sparda smells like, compared to just a regular demon without malevolent intent? Hm. I don't really like the idea of the clan having something relic with Sparda's scent on it, but that seems like the easiest solution.

Unless Foxfire runs into Dante by accident, and somehow recognizes him. Maybe he loses a piece of his coat, or a glove or something, during his fight with Salamander, and Foxfire picks it up and shows it to her familiar. Since Foxfire is a devil hunter, she would presumably show up to fight a massive fire demon, right? Maybe she watches the fight from the sidelines, and pops in after Dante leaves to claim his discarded glove/torn clothing. Then we can have a brief discussion between Firefox and Django, where he asks her who the buck that guy was, and she gives him a very brief summary. They then go separate ways, but meet again (and possibly again) later as Foxfire and Coyote track Dante!

I'm liking this scenario.
